Welcome to Schwartz Guitars ... The Art of Sound

I'm glad you found your way here. My name is Sheldon Schwartz. I hope you'll find all the information you need about me and my hand crafted acoustic guitars so you can make an informed choice on your next six (or seven) stringed acquisition.
I've been building guitars full time since 1992.  During that time, I have developed three models: the Advanced Auditorium, the Pinnacle Fingerstyle Guitar with 6 or 7 strings, and the futuristic Oracle Fingerstyle Guitar.

I'm always happy to talk guitars and answer any questions you may have.

Sheldon Schwartz,
Luthier

"I own a Schwartz. I will always own a Sheldon Schwartz guitar. If you play this guitar, you will see why. There may not be a better Luthier in the galaxy that can put art, sound, wood, craftsmanship and heart into a guitar like Sheldon.
